R 4 899 000 | 10.0 bed property for sale in orchards

A unique opportunity to earn a large rental income (realistically R54 000 per month), and a great return on investment, from this multi-unit property in the heart of Orchards. There are 7 separate, rentable units on the property, plus the main house which has 3 bedrooms. The units consist of: • Three custom designed, modern, studio units each with upstairs loft and own bathroom and kitchenette, currently generating R22 900 combined. • A fourth, larger studio unit, generating R7 000. • Three custom-designed, compact, “budget” units, generating a combined R7 100. These 3 units share a bathroom and kitchen. • The main house could easily have the main bedroom altered to be a standalone rental unit earning R6 000, and the rest of the main house (with 2 bedrooms) could earn R11 000. A good indicator of return on investment for rental properties is the “gross yield”. A good gross yield is 10% p.a. or more. At the list price of R4.899m, the gross yield is a very good 13.2% p.a. A key financial benefit! Investing in multi-unit rentals in a sectional-title complex incurs costs of levies and rates on each unit. For this property there are no levies and only one COJ account!
